Liquidsoap & external encoder help.
  • Hi all,
    i have setup on a Raspberry with raspbian liquidsoap stream
    at an icecast server and then a second Raspberry with liquidsoap to
    receive that stream.
    I use %ogg(%flac) encoder but i'm not so happy
    about sound quality so i'm searching infos about %external flac encoder
    how could it be done.
    Could somebody help me because i can not make it work...any working script?
    Thanks for your time!

  • Raspbian use liquidsoap v1.01 flac do not work good on this version
    you best re-compile  liquidsoap to 1.1 or
    use shine instead

    or get Raspberry pi 2 and install ubuntu14.04 and you are good to go

  • Hi and thanks for your reply.
    Both are Raspberry Pi3 and because i see that flac encoder is bad can you please give me some infos how could i re-compile liquidsoap to 1.1 ? or how could i use an external flac encoder because i'm confused...i'm not an expert and is my first try at linux.
    Thanks!
  • What's your mission? Why not use Airtime.pro rather than wasting countless hours tinkering?
  • I use intranet streaming (local network not internet) and i need 192khz samplerate not kbps but samplerate and only by liquidsoap i can do it as i know.
  • Why do you need 192 sampling? Are you playing music at a dog pound?
  • Because all my music are flac 192khz samplerate
  • Come on...  =))
